How to Market Your Boat for a Fast Sale
« on: January 23, 2011, 01:29:37 PM »
This ad made me laugh.

A boat with the best marketing tools would be hard to sell in a Minnesota winter.

Is the stuff in the boat included in the sale?

The ONE time they should have left the cover on it, they didn't!   :D

Perfect!  I'm glad someone mentioned the cover issue.  I found a CVX on CL that was bundled up for winter. How the heck do people expect potential buyers to view the boat under the cover.
